2020 f250 with the 6.2L. Looking around this morning i saw this. Didn't have much time to look into where it went but couldn't see anything obvious. It's on top by the passenger side behind the intake manifold runner control valve. Maybe its normal?
Looks like an A/C hose, but it would be easier to identify with a more panned out picture, but I looked up the number and it is a left PCV gas tube.
circled in blue is where its at. I appreciate the info. Seems really small for a PCV tube but then again im used to diesel motors on farm equipment. This is my first gasser I've had only 2 years so still learning.
Much better picture, thanks. I don't know if it is too large or too small. When PCVs were first introduced on Fords, they looked like an inner hose with a outer hose protecting it, and I was never sure why. Why were you originally asking about this? Do you have a vacuum leak or just curious? That is usually something that I thought never broke, but today, it seems everything is all about breaking.
I had a leak just large enough to set off the gas cap symbol on the console, replaced the gas cap, no good, so I put a Ziplock bag between the gas cap and the inlet. Nothing worked, so something like that hose could be a culprit for me, also. But, I hooked up Forscan and there was no computer sensed leak, and the truck behaved well. It was funny how the mileage dropped when the gas cap symbol appeared on my truck.
Bottom line, I'm about to do the spark plug change and will snoop around, at the same time, for a leak.
I probably didn't help you, so my apologies for that, but you pointed me to my potential problems. So, thank you!
It looks like it would plug into the filtered air section of the air box (square box directly in front of the "un-plugged" hose itself (in the zoomed out picture).
With the current angle of the picture, there is no way to tell
Yes the little hose that looks disconnected. It's a hard line and as far as I can feel reaches back behind the motor where I can't see where it starts. I'm thinking that's the way its designed as there is nowhere near by that looks like it could have gone and it doesn't look like its been attached previously. The end I thought looks clean cut but maybe its cracked and the other part is missing. Maybe ill have to look at YouTube videos to see if its noticable on other 6.2s.
And yeah im looking under cause my auto 4x4 hubs aren't working so assumed a possible vacuum line leak. Saw that and got side tracked.

Hopefully it helps you then! And yeah a potential vacuum leak due to auto 4x4 hubs not engaging.
I guess my brain was still asleep when I looked at it. The hose that is disconnected has to be some kind of vacuum, and I'll bet it goes somewhere on the air box. My 250 is a 2011, and yours has a wholly different air box from mine. Looks like it is time to crawl up on top of the engine and get lost doing a deep dive. There is no comfortable or convenient way to do that. It was recommended to me to get one of those folding benches to work on mine, and all I can say is that it helps, just not quite enough. I'll be waiting to see what you find out. I might have the same problem as you.
But, the truck is waiting for the BMW, which I just spent an arm and a leg on, to be fixed. I drove down the road and it sounded like I was popping popcorn under the hood. Got to fix that first.
